Not all crashes/incidents make it to the database carfax uses. Sometimes there's no insurance claim (buy it in cash, no full coverage, fix it in cash, nobody else involved, etc). Major accidents sure, it's rare someone fixes that in cash to try to resell, it's kind of a lost cause.
But minor stuff can be tricky, e.g. water damage and the guy just replaced the carpets but didn't fix wiring issues, or a rear end hit where he just replaced the bumper cover to make it look ok, but there's frame damage hiding underneath screwing up alignment.
